I Am A Roving Gambler (Album Version)

歌詞

I am a rovin' gambler-- I've gambled all around-- And wherever I see a deck of ca-a-ards, I lay my money down, lay my money down, I lay my money down. I've gambled down in Washington, ga-ambled up in Maine; I'm headed down to Tenessee-ee-ee to knock down my last game, knock down my last game, to knock down my last game. I had not been in Washington many more weeks than three, when I fell in love with a pretty little ga-a-al, and she fell in love with me, fell in love with me, she fell in love with me. She took me to her parlor; she cooled me with her fan; she whispered in her mother's e-e-ear, "I love that gamblin' man, love that gamblin' man, I love that gamblin' man. "I wouldn't marry a railroad man; this is the reason why: I've never seen a railroad ma-a-an wouldn't tell his wife a lie, tell his wife a lie, wouldn't tell his wife a lie. "Oh, Mother, oh dear Mother, I'll tell you if I can: if you ever see me comin' ba-a-ack, it'll be with a gamblin' man, be with a gamblin' man, it'll be with a gamblin' man." I am a rovin' gambler-- I've gambled all around-- and wherever I see a deck of ca-a-ards, I lay my money down, lay my money down, I lay my money down. And wherever I see a deck of ca-a-ards, I lay my money down, lay my money down, lay my money down.
